We were in town for a week to attend a wedding, so the house and location worked well for us. The staircase is steep and narrow which is difficult to maneuver, especially with luggage.

Our stay was pretty good overall. The internet was not working during our stay, which wasn't a huge issue for us, but worth noting. The bathroom showers are small and a bit frustrating with the curtains that will allow water to leak on to the floor and subsequently through the floor if not exactly sealed up. Just a couple small annoyances, but overall the stay was fine.

Ski trip

The property was semi-decent. Rather dated and in need of upgrades throughout. No privacy in loft bedroom. Sofa mattress had an unsightly stain on top and when flipped over to inspect, there appeared to be black mold. VRBO is highly overrated and charge exorbitant fees on top off owner rental fees. Definitely not worth the highly overpriced charge of $700.00 on this place for two nights. Advice: For those of you who want to rent out your VAC homes to guests, make sure it's modernized, clean and advertise by word of mouth or another site that doesn't take advantage of travelers. VRBO is not the only option. Spread by word of mouth and bypass the middle man to keep rental fees within reason.

Snowed In!

We had planned to visit the quaint downtown areas of Boyne and Petoskey but with a foot of snow outside, opted to just stay in. We still enjoyed being able to be all together and just played games and talked.

Great up north cottage

We had a great 6 night stay. The home is exactly as pictured and described. Great location right down the road from downtown Boyne City, Young State Park, and Charlevoix and Petosky are a quick drive. There is a fair amount of road noise in the front bedroom, but that is to be expected. Great communication with the host.

Quaint Cottage

The location of this property is perfectly located between Young State Park and Boyne City. We always have family camping at Young so this was high on our list of potential rentals. There is a large front porch/deck and picnic table with a partial view of Lake Charlevoix where meals can be enjoyed outdoors. The accommodations are very comfortable and cottage is well supplied. There could be some improvements in lighting and storage space in certain rooms but overall it's an easy work around. The biggest drawback is the tub and shower in the main bath. The pedestal tub can be difficult to get in and out of and the fact that there are no grab bars makes it somewhat dangerous. Other than that we had a great stay.
